Chapter Ninety: Xu Chuming Imprisoned
The carriage traveled all the way to Wenju.
Zhao Yu dressed Xu Chumian in a long gown and then wrapped her in a large cloak before carrying her out of the carriage.
The gatekeeper was shocked to see this.
"Master, you are injured. I will go and fetch a doctor."
Zhao Yu usually wore dark robes, making it difficult to see bloodstains. Now, large dark marks on his chest, with a strong smell of blood, showed how serious the injury to his chest was.
The person in his arms closed their eyes and wouldn't listen.
Xu Chumian's struggles are futile now. Even if she runs, where can she run to now?
The main courtyard, Lanyun Courtyard.
The maids in the courtyard were startled: "Master, it's Miss Xu."
Zhao Yu said coldly, "Go and prepare hot water."
I remember living there for several years in my previous life, and the layout of the courtyard and the interior decoration are still vivid in my mind.
Zhao Yu placed her on the bed, untied her cloak, and then took off her ridiculously long robe.
The woman, pale-faced, sat blankly on the edge of the bed.
Zhao Yu took her undergarment and placed the complete set on the bed.
He stood by the bed, his voice calm: "Will you change it yourself, or should I change it for you?"
Xu Chumian's eyelids twitched. She slowly raised her eyes, which were bloodshot and her lips were chapped. She stared at Zhao Yu and said, "Get out."
The maids outside immediately fell silent upon hearing the noise and became even more careful with their movements.
Zhao Yu's expression remained unchanged, showing no anger. He took a towel from the shelf and soaked it in hot water.
Xu Chumian pursed her lips tightly, constantly pinching her palms. When her peripheral vision caught sight of the wet wipe, she slapped Zhao Yu's hand away and glared at him: "I'll tell you to get out!"
The atmosphere in the room was tense.
Xu Chumian stared fiercely at Zhao Yu like a struggling young animal.
Zhao Yu's chest heaved, as if he was quite angry with Xu Chumian.
He leaned down slightly, pinched Xu Chumian's chin, and laughed angrily: "You really like him that much?"
Xu Chumian's tears immediately fell.
"Yes, I want Xiao Qingyan!"
"Zhao Yu, don't force me... What's done is done, I can't forget those things, it's impossible for us."
With tears blurring her vision, Xu Chumian's every word was like a knife stabbing into Zhao Yu's heart.
Let Xu Chumian go?
Then who will let him go?
Zhao Yu gripped her shoulders, his eyes red, "Xu Chumian, you can't be so cruel to me. What has Xiao Qingyan done for you? What has made you so devoted to him? You're just going to throw away all those years of our relationship?"
Xu Chumian's throat tightened, "Let's part amicably."
Zhao Yu straightened up, a soft laugh escaping his throat. "Chu Mian, don't be naive. There's still plenty of time. We'll get married and have children."
Having children?
Xu Chumian's mind went completely blank. How could Zhao Yu still say such things? That child was the pain of her life.
She can't forget it.
"We have a lifetime ahead of us."
Xu Chumian's face was wet with tears. She couldn't believe it. "Zhao Yu, are you going to imprison me for the rest of my life?"
Zhao Yu's eyes turned cold. "In your opinion, this is imprisonment?"
Wenju is now a cage that traps Xu Chumian.
She no longer wanted to be a caged bird, no longer wanted to become a flower that gradually withered in a vast mansion...
She can never repeat the path of her past life.
Xu Chumian stood up, wiped away her tears, and took a deep breath: "Zhao Yu, I will not do as you wish."
Zhao Yu smiled, "Then we'll wait and see."
"madman."
Zhao Yu is now a complete madman.
Zhao Yu saw the meaning in her eyes and sneered, "Yes, I went mad a long time ago. I went mad the day you left in your previous life."
Xu Chumian pushed him, "Get out, get out of here!"
Zhao Yu took a step back, his gaze deep. "I'll have Xiao Tao come over later. You should get some sleep."
Xu Chumian was so angry that she threw a pillow at him.
As Zhao Yu stepped out of the house, he swayed, unable to suppress the blood rising in his throat, which spilled from his mouth.
"Young Master!"
"master!"
"Dr. Chen has arrived."
Zhao Yu nodded and instructed Guan Yan, "Go and bring Mu Mu here."
"yes!"
The outside quickly quieted down. Xu Chumian stood still, while Xiao Tao and two other maids came in with hand warmers and food.
Upon seeing Xu Chumian, whose eyes were red and swollen and whose hair was disheveled, everyone lowered their heads.
"Miss Xu, the hot water is ready. Would you like to take a bath now?"
Xu Chumian's eyelids twitched, and she softly hummed in agreement.
